This is what happens both when no one is held to account…and no leadership on the matter.

Mad as HE double-hockeysticks I am about it.

...OR an EO on the matter.

IMHO this illustrates one of 2 things:

1. The power of the corporation over even POTUS,
2. Something deeper on the topic ongoing not yet revealed.

I’d hope for the latter, but my other hand filled long ago re rfk jr and, more recently, bondi. It’s a horrible look, especially given recent events as we sit on hour hands yet again...

Revolting.

A dog bites man story, but still, it’s important that each such example or episode of spinelessness on the part of Biden-era brass be chronicled.

I like Pete, but he should spend more time doing his job of cleaning house and less time yakking it up over at FNC.

He's been on FOX more than Brit Hume.

Well, shiver me timbers...

Throughout his 20-year career, Dr. Spears observed that too many senior military officers “say what you want to hear, but aren’t actually willing to act upon what they say.”

A "Lyin' Genrill" - whodathunk it?

Bigger issue, why did a CW3 actually believe that?

Those at or near the top have a habit of not rocking the boat. They are afraid that if they actually do something, policy-wise, then that will be held against them at some point down the line by another administration. So for them to do nothing is better than doing something that might endanger their pension or promotion................

We are so focused on foreign wars that we have a mess brewing.

POTUS is one man. We just got started and have been detoured. He is rather busy right now.

Why does that not surprise me? Why do these things never happen when a RAT takes the helm?

Sorry, you are not allowed to criticize anymore. She is a cut above Sessions though because she is still in her position.

seems the Sec. of Defense should be able to suspend\cancel all these COVID separation from service actions.

The whole admin spends way too much time on FOX. I got rid of FOX years ago but see clips all over the place.

FOX and CNN biggest with older RINOs and RATs.

Barron needs to be listened to more. LOL
